Fees
Our fees are the lowest in the area, but we provide the highest level of service. We have been in business for over 25 years. It seems there is a new company starting out every day, trying to beat everyone else’s prices. Over the years we’ve seen numerous new companies start and fail, so choose wisely – your real estate investment is worth it!

We have found that since we have established relationships with area contractors and we send them a high volume of work, our pricing is still be less than what you would probably pay as an individual owner. The fee includes determining the exact repairs required, obtaining bids and negotiating with contractors, and inspecting the property before, during, and after the work is completed.

Lease Renewal Fee: $150.

We understand that necessity of keeping your property rented and will work to keep current tenants on a lease. We will notify your tenant 60 days prior to the lease expiration of our desire to continue the tenancy. We will enter into 2-year leases if so desired by the owner.
